smooth bellows wont do anything...LS6 intake should put u RIGHT in the 350 rwhp region + or - 1-2 hp....id bet you would probably JUST make it.

no bellows, LS6 and swap the air filter for a stocker and you will have it!

Well, all depends on the dyno...but if you're going to the same dyno that you got your previous numbers at...I would hope you'll make over 350rwhp.

Come on down here and I'll take you to a local dyno that you'll probably make over 400rwhp on.

Maybe but the weather is going to play more into the #'s than the bellows.

wait, you say come on down to where your at and theres a dyno that would put him at 400 rwhp when his place says he has around 350, why would someone want to dyno there car on a dyno that puts out false numbers? why would yours be 50 hp more?

the bellows is a waste of money so why get it..

the LS6 intake will net ya some gain..

the air filter is keeping his car from producing at least 3rwhp and every little bit helps right?


as for a location for dyno testing, you always want to use the most reputable

Which is why people use SAE adjusted numbers typically

Well, if you or anyone else is the type of person that's concerned with dyno numbers or wants to brag about their dyno numbers then the more optimistic the dyno, the better.
And 400rwhp was just an exaggerated guess...I have no idea what anyone would make. It's just that this particular dyno has given some fairly high numbers in the past...but not always. A few cars have gotten some believable numbers from there.

If you can do a few pulls on the dyno, I'm pretty sure you'll hit over 350 at least once.

The LS6 will help out a bunch and probably throw you over 350rwhp.
